The thesis used the methodology of deduction and analysis of pricing based on costs in the manufacturing company. After the analysis, we have proposed specific cases where companies based on certain assumptions choose one of the pricing options. We have also outlined the procedures for calculating the sales price of a product in a manufacturing company for each cost-based pricing method. Based on these procedures, different production companies can, under non-identical conditions, determine the selling price of the product to be introduced.
